Hi, I'm looking for some advice.
Basic question is:
Will any harm be done if my leisure battery positive and vehicle battery positive become connected to one another?
Explanation:
I want to set up my camper van so that I can switch on the cameras from either the drivers seat or when in the back. It is easier to wire if I can have a switch taking power from the vehicle battery when in the drivers seat and a switch taking power from the leisure battery when in the back.
if both switches are unintentionally turned on this would lead to the two positives having a direct route to each other. I am concerned this could lead to the lower charged battery taking the charge from the other battery (or blowing the fuse if over its rating).
If this is a problem would a simple diode placed near the switch stop the problem?
Thanks in anticipation.
Anton.
